When a sex tape can sustain more commercial interruptions than a John Wayne movie on TNT and still achieve this kind of rating, you know you're working on a vastly different level from most adult fare.

Yes, we may be driving Sean Michaels' name like a formidable 18-wheeler up your ass, but there's a pretty good reason for it.

Michaels, now that he has distanced himself from a body language rife with self-conscious forehead musings and foppish, boytoy-peeks-over-designer-sunglasses, has emerged as one of the premier sexual interpreters of the modern generation. (Well, the style statement isn't exactly true. There's a scene where Michaels dons a bowler hat, in the process practically making himself into Stymie from Our Gang.)

But any way you pop the pooper, Michaels has packaged the anal scene as a veritable work of art, and an exquisite joy to behold. If Bach had worked a different kind of organ, Up Your Ass 3 would be it. And you'll see why in this latest collection, which is sure to bring a tear to the eye of anyone who's attempted the dingleberry dance.

The controversial Devon Deray submits her fecal freeway to the grueling Michaels road test. You'll recall it was a year ago when Devon cried "foul," claiming she was impregnated during an anal encounter with Michael J. Cox. Call us naive to the ways the pediatrician, but Devon looks pretty damned good for wear in this setpiece, as Michaels takes his ebony piggy to the shit-market. For its duration, composition and variety of positions, this tryst demands to be the boy scout manual for the anal merit badge.

Go figure the Bo Derek braids, but Lovette shows up sporting them in a sequence where Jake Steed gallops into her anal sunset, deploying a showstopping side saddle maneuver that would do Tom Mix proud. This one's so hale and hearty, why, you might not even notice that Lovette's partner Mia gets away clean by not taking it in the ass from Michaels in a companion pairing.

And, whoa, here's something really different. Spanking's involved just before Tom Byron settles in like a seasonal migrant worker using La Tigra's ass to hole up for the winter.

Speaking of spanking and our gang, the aforementioned bowler hat scene commences with Michaels performing a hunt for brown October in Johnni Black's beckoning bowels. In possession of one of those wonderful, globular bottoms that commands to be wailed, Black uses her rump effectively to instigate turd tension as Michaels takes her for a walk in the doggie portion of the scene.

Customarily, Lana Sands offers a scene that's both smart and sassy. Here, Michaels, in kind, buries it deep, providing the viewer with one of the most exquisitely executed spoon jobs this side of the Queen Mother's tea service.

And what's an anal tape without the vaunted d.p., we ask you? Natural-breasted and muscular Kimberly Jade answer the question during her three amigos session with Jake Steed and Julian St. Jox. Julian plants the seed in Kimberly's ass, and you'll watch your profits grow mightily by stocking this magnificent anal specimen.
